Designer Profile: Krista Norris of Krista Norris Collection

Spending her childhood summers with her seamstress grandmother, Ottawa's Krista Norris traces the beginnings of her collection learning how to sew. That treasured memory blossomed over the years as she sketched her way through high school and continued to teach herself about garment construction, which fed her passion for design, textiles, and style.

Not for Mass Consumption

Not for Mass Consumption

Tired of sifting through magazines only to find predictable ads, lacklustre interviews, and pieces on trite subjects? We are too! New in-house are two noteworthy, independent, rare magazines, Kennedy and Compost, hailing from Greece and Argentina respectively. Devoid of ads, we love their hybrid art-book nature with informative, aesthetically fresh content that is anything but banal.

Laura Siegel makes herself Traceable

Laura Siegel makes herself Traceable

Traceable is a documentary directed by Jennifer K. Sharpe. It focuses on how luxury goods are made, where they come from, and the impact they have on developing communities. Sharpe quotes “Noticing the trend in labelling clothing as “sustainable” while witnessing a departure of manufacturing and production in the apparel industry in North America, was the beginning of my impetus for Traceable.”
